The AS350 B3 - Airbus Helicopters
The AS350 B3 integrates all the latest technological innovations available. Its powerful engine provides the operator with the highest performance necessary to carry out demanding missions in mountainous areas or in hot countries. This rotorcraft is also equipped with the state of the art VEMD (Vehicle and Engine Multifunction Display) for the management and control of the main vehicle and engine parameters. This instrument will ensure the pilot an enhanced safety and a reduced workload. A S 3 5 0 B 3 Te c h n o l o g i e s A state-of-the -art workhorse. The AS350 B3 : A state-of-the-art workhorse. The AS350 B3 is powered by a TURBOMECA ARRIEL 2B engine of 847 shp (632 kW). It benefits from the ARRIEL experience family that counts 13 million flight hours.It is also equipped with a FADEC system (Full Authority Digital Engine Control). The FADEC greatly simplifies engine control but in addition ensures: • Optimum performance in all conditions The VEMD gathers all the conventional the pilot can watch all limitation parameters • Engine protection electromechanical instruments on two 5’’ at a glance and concentrates on his • Power plant monitoring full color LCD screens and clearly shows mission. It also improves maintenance all vehicle and engine control information. thanks to the automation of such functions It allows several display modes: normal as flight duration, number of NG and NF ground and engine starting sequence, cycles exceeded limitations and internal normal flight operation, flight report and functional testing.
